Prem Joshua & Band

Pioneers of an eclectic sound that draws its essence from the depth
of India's musical traditions as well as the innovation of
contemporary Western music, multi-instrumentalist and composer, Prem
Joshua and his international band are a leading light in the world
of Indian contemporary music. Unmistakably rooted in Indian Ragas
and rhythms, his signature sound embraces a variety of cultures and
conventions from across the world.

Interweaving rhythms from Morocco with beats from London's dance
floors, experimenting with Eastern European rhythms and jazz, and
splicing together chillout and sufi verses, his search for synthesis
continues to flourish at the meeting point of genres and influences.
